effective upon the date of its execution, and,
unless terminated as herein provided, shall
remain in full force and effect through and

continuance after such date is specifically
approved at least annually (i) by the Board of
Trustees of the Fund and (ii) by the vote of a
majority of those Trustees of the Fund who
are not interested persons of the
Administrator or the Fund.
Either party hereto may, at any time on
sixty (60) days' prior written notice to the
other, terminate this Agreement without the
payment of any penalty, by action of the
Trustees of the Fund or the trustee of the
Administrator, as the case may be, and the

This Agreement shall terminate automatically

Administrator or the Fund, and (ii) by vote of
the Board of Trustees of the Fund.
8. Limitation of Liability. Each party
expressly acknowledges the provision in the
other party's Agreement and Declaration of
Trust limiting the personal liability of trustees,
officers and shareholders, and each party
hereby agrees that it shall only have recourse

of claims or obligations arising out of this
Agreement and shall not seek satisfaction

from time to time in other connections and
for other purposes by the Administrator and
its affiliates and other investment companies

name "▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇." The Administrator
shall have the right to require the Fund to
cease using the name "▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇" as part
of the Fund's name if the Fund ceases, for
any reason, to employ the Administrator or
one of its affiliates as the Fund's

Administrator, shall be the property of the
Administrator and shall be subject to the
same terms and conditions.
10. Certain Definitions. The terms
"assignment" and "interested persons"
when used herein shall have the respective
meanings specified in the Investment
Company Act of 1940 as now in effect or as
hereafter amended subject, however, to such
exemptions as may be granted by the

rule, regulation or order. The term "vote of
a majority of the outstanding voting
securities" shall mean the vote of the lesser

the Fund present or represented by proxy at
the meeting if the holders of more than 50
per centum of the outstanding shares of the

the meeting, or (b) more than 50 per centum
of the outstanding shares of the Fund.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties
